Yes, how dare they use their scale to make more cost-effective versions of popular things.

It doesn't really count when they:

1. Have access to immense amounts of data about these products that the manufacturers don't. Because they own the marketplace.

2. Can freely advertise, push, or even force their own products as much as possible. Because they own the marketplace.

how dare they use their algorithms to make sure all their cost effective versions will show up first.

That's probably the more pressing issue.
